Vérité Description
Le Désir—predominantly Cabernet Franc supported by Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot — shows layers of concentrated fruit, exotic spice, opulent aromatics and a plush suede texture.
Antonio Galloni Vinous Media: 95 Points
The 2012 Le Désir is striking. It is also the richest and most powerful of the Vérité 2012s. An exotic, alluring bouquet melds into layers of dark red fruit as this ample, voluptuous wine shows off its personality. The 2012 simply oozes with Cabernet Franc floral and spice notes. Although the 2012 is quite expressive today, it will be even better with more time. Over the last few years the Désir has clearly emerged as Vérité's top wine. Today, it is absolutely gorgeous, although it needs time to be at its best.
Wine Spectator: 88 Points
Presents a rugged mix of road tar, crushed rock, graphite and cedary notes amid a core of dried dark berry fruit, ending with tobacco, underbrush and chalky limestone flavors. Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. Drink now through 2027. - JL
